We invite you to Tasting Dinner at Sam’s Steak House on February 17. This is a series of dinners where our guests have the opportunity to try the legendary sorts of single malt whisky and learn about them from professional speakers.
This time you will try whisky from the famous Scottish distillery Glenmorangie. A unique feature of this whisky distillery is the highest distillation cubes in Scotland: there are 12 copper machines, which are exact copies of the first distilling cubes. The height of the swan neck of each of them is 5.14 meters (approximate height of an adult giraffe).
The speaker of the dinner Ivan Bachurin is brand-ambassador of Moët Hennessy in the CIS countries and chairman of the Sommelier Association of Ukraine. Ivan is a professional with 20 years of experience, in 2009 he won the title of the best sommelier in Ukraine, and recently became the owner of a vineyard and makes his own wines using classic technology.
Limited release Glenmorangie "Astar" and Glenmorangie 18 Y.O. will be the culmination of the evening.
Glenmorangie Astar was created in 2008 and got its name from the Gaelic word "journey". The whisky was aged in custom-made oak barrels, thanks to the unique qualities of which, in the process of aging, it reached perfection and depth of taste. In 2017, it was decided to revive whisky, which is so loved by many people. Astar barrels were made from hand-picked oak wood that grew slowly in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri. Due to the unique qualities of these barrels in the process of aging, the alcohols have achieved an intense aroma of flowers, apples, vanilla and caramel. The taste of whisky is very rich with shades of creme brulee, apricots and pears.
Rare single malt whisky Glenmorangie 18 Y.O. for 15 years aged in barrels of American oak from under bourbon, after which most of it remains aged, and about 30% are sent for aging in barrels of sherry Oloroso. When both parts reach 18 years of age, they are combined to produce an incredibly rich single malt whisky. The drink has an elegant balanced taste with notes of honey, malt and flowers, as well as amazing aromas of dates, figs and faint hints of wood smoke.
